I sat out the annual preseason prospect rankings tradition this time. It would have been disingenuous to comment authoritatively on players who largely disappeared from the public eye in 2020. The Marlins organization in particular was tight-lipped about what transpired at their alternate training site. I didn’t want to parrot vague information or subconsciously favor individuals just for sharing their development on social media.
With most of the 2021 Minor League Baseball season complete and dozens of recent additions via trades and the MLB Draft, now’s the right time to update you on who’s making waves in this objectively great farm system.
